Guide: How to Disable Facebook Autoplay Feature on Every Platform
It seems like every time Facebook introduces a new feature, people have been polarized in all kinds of ways. I still remember when The Wall was pulled down and something known as Timeline was introduced. It took me a while to get used to it, but I grumbled about these changes every day. Ready to log out because videos automatically play on Facebook? Shutterstock Another such change in recent times is the ability to automatically play user uploaded videos. Oh, this is not only an annoyance (especially when you are at work) but also a large amount of bandwidth. It doesn’t make that much of a difference on a computer, but with a limited data plan, it can be difficult in the wrong places. Fortunately, it’s easy to turn it off and continue peacefully on Facebook. Let’s see how to do that.
On computers /Laptops
Once you are logged into your Facebook account from your computer /laptop, you should find the Settings option in the top right menu.
Once there, look for the Videos option on the left, which should ideally be last. Click on it and on the right side there are only 2 options, the second is what you should pay attention to. Press the drop-down list button and select Off for the Automatically play videos option and breathe a sigh of relief.
On iPhones
Whether you’re on the latest iOS or not, if you have an iPhone, you’ll need to go to the Settings menu of the first phoneFrom here navigate to Facebook and then to the Videos and Photos section. Here you will find an Autoplay option that was previously unavailable. Tap on it, then select Never auto-play videos so you won’t be disturbed while scrolling through your Facebook feed.
On Android devices
Since Android is Android, you will get the correct settings right from the app. So open the Facebook app and tap the hamburger menu in the top right corner. From here, go to the app settings and here you have to select Autoplay Videos.
Once you change the option to Off, you know you’ll never see those annoying videos on your Android device again.
Facebook app alternative: If you’re looking for alternatives to the default app on Android, look no further than Metal, which we found really good here on GT.
Breathe easy
These simple steps are enough to turn off Facebook video auto-playing on all platforms. While the view count of some videos may seem ridiculous, I’m not sure this could be Facebook’s way of growing. But that’s just my opinion, join our forum for a cold glass of your favorite beer and discuss it sensibly?
